tackle artist # 2

So far, all of your research and gathering has been focused on your "Artist #1" - you've identified what they accomplished during their lifetime, created a master list of their works and hopefully, by now you've collected a few of the masterpieces and flops and have started reading/examining them in detail.

TODAY'S CREATIVITY CHALLENGE:

Repeat everything you've done for Artist #1 to your new search about Artist #2. Look back over the exercises for February and gather your materials for your second genius.

As you do this, notice if there are any similarities between the two artists. Are they wildly different in their approach to art or their perspective on the world, life, love, etc? What were the major themes that each of these artists were wrestling?

Again, remember, this is just your surface impressions. Are there any aspects of their work that strike you as obviously related or obviously opposed to one another?

Follow your gut.
